November Club projects

I have to say, I'm quite pleased with how all of these layouts turned out! You know how sometimes, they have to grow on you.....well, these I liked from the start. LOL!

Above are the Stamp a Stack cards. We used the Tag the Occasion stamp set for these. I didn't realize how many circles I had used until I started punching them to pack in the club kits. LOL!! My room looks like a disaster at the moment. With all my scrapping/stamping stuff and all of my sewing materials out, it was easier to punch the circles than it was to move things to get to the Cricut and to find a place to put it. LOL!!

For the Cherish Club, we used X7130B Mistletoe Level 2 kit. I love these papers! They are such traditional and elegant papers. Love the Mistletoe embellishments also!

And, for our Imagine Club, we used the beautiful X7119B Veranda Level 2 kit.

If you'd like to join any of the clubs, whether you are local or long distance, drop me an email and I'll give you all the details!

January Stamp a Stack Cards

For January, we used C1389 So Sweet. Since Close To My Heart's stamps are clear acrylic, it was so easy to line up the flowers and the stems and the bird body and outline! Definitely Faster, Simpler, Easier! We used papers from X7107B That's Amore and the new X7119B Veranda. Check out the monochromatic card. The back side of that Veranda paper is so pretty! Hope you like them.
